What: Brian Robison Reel ‘Em In Foundation kick off

Where: Taverna 

PC Moment: Minnesota Vikings’ defensive end Brian Robison, a Houstonian and member of the University of Texas 2005 national championship football team, launched his second annual Reel ‘Em In Foundation fishing tournament with a bash at the French restaurant in River Oaks District. His fishing tournament, April 1 and 2 at Lake Sam Rayburn, will benefit Houston-based K9s4COPs and the turnout was all about the heroic German Shepherds and their uniformed partners. A special moment: when Robison was introduced to Elliott, the K9 that he was able to donate to detective Chris Knowlton as a result of last year’s tournament.

Who: K9s4COPs founder Kristi Schiller, Karen and Kevin Henry, Laurie and Tracy Krohn, Terri and Jimmy Robison, Jack Stapler, Martha Adger, Donna Wilson, Kelli and Christian Boehm, Jonas Fertitta, Kelly Kimberly, Jennifer and Brent Howard, Annie Amante and Sara Kinney.
